Been slamming all summer on projects so put the blogging on hold a bit. Today I responded to this very interesting job listing from Craigslist- I love the attitude and it’s truly keyword dense:
YOU:
Live and breathe the Interwebs (but won’t spend 6 hours a day surfing it)
Have Twitter, Facebook, MySpace (which you never use), Linked In, Delicious and Stumble accounts
Can write real good
Learn fast, really fast
Are bothered when there are unread posts in your Google Reader
Are incredibly curious, always on top of the next new thing, especially when it comes to technology
Are detail-oriented and organized…because the rest of the Marketing Department isn’t
You not only read blogs but post comments as well…mostly without profanity
Have an innate ability to simultaneously write web copy, talk to the Marketing Director and email the latest PPC leads to the sales team
Hate to be micromanaged.
If this sounds like you, read on.
We’re looking for a Creative Marketing Coordinator to join our team. We are a strategic technology firm based in Rochester, NY. We plan, design, develop, deploy and maintain technology solutions for over 400 clients in 5 countries.

Maintaining consistency of message across multiple networks and media and working with the Director of Marketing to ensure proper messaging

Coordinating internal projects such as events, branding initiatives and other communications
